need a blood or urine sample<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are being treated with Rocephalin with&nbsp;lidocaine&nbsp;for a long time, you may need to have regular blood tests.&nbsp;Rocephalin with&nbsp;lidocaine&nbsp;can affect the results of tests for sugar in the urine and a blood test called the Coombs test.&nbsp;If you are going to take a test:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Tell the person taking the test that you are being treated with Rocephalin with\u00a0lidocaine.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are diabetic or need to monitor your blood sugar level, do not use certain types of blood glucose meters as these may calculate your blood sugar incorrectly while you are receiving ceftriaxone.\u00a0If you use such meters, read the instructions for use and talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.\u00a0Alternative test methods should be used if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Children and young people<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk to your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before treating your child with Rocephalin with\u00a0lidocaine\u00a0if:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>He\/she has

are taking any of the following medicines, as they may&nbsp;interact&nbsp;with ceftriaxone:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>A type of\u00a0antibiotic\u00a0is called\u00a0an

machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rocephalin with&nbsp;lidocaine&nbsp;may cause dizziness.&nbsp;If you feel dizzy, do not drive or use any tools or machines.&nbsp;Talk to your doctor if you experience any of these symptoms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect
